David Baker on The Moe Green Poetry Hour

David Baker’s new poetry collection, Never-Ending Birds, was published last month. Yesterday he joined Rafael Alvarado and Brett-Candace Hanson-Smith (yes, I believe that is all one, oddly hyphenated name, correct me if I’m wrong) on the Moe Green Poetry Hour to discuss the new book and all things poetry. It’s a long, fascinating, somewhat rambling conversation that I highly recommend. Rafael and Brett-Candace comment on David’s work in a very innocent (but well-read) way and it’s interesting to hear David respond. Click through to listen to the show.

Part map, part travelogue, part chronicle, part autobiography, Never-Ending Birds explores a variety of landscapes from Midwestern villages to the boroughs of big cities. Steeped in story—divorce, loss, raising a child, uncovering old worlds and new loves—these poems are gracefully lived in, lived through, with mystery and beauty. more »
